A temporary holder for a physiologic mitral valve includes a structure which releasably clamps the annulus of the valve between the rim of a plate and a snap ring. The structure also includes a pair of papillary head holders which hold the papillary heads of the valve at a predetermined distance and angle from the annulus plate for optimum surgical positioning. The papillary heads are temporarily sutured to their holders and can be released by a simple scalpel stroke.
La présente invention concerne un support temporaire pour une valvule mitrale physiologique, comprenant une structure qui immobilise de manière libérable, l'anneau de la valvule situé entre le bord d'une plaque et un circlip. La structure comporte également une paire de porte-têtes papillaires qui maintiennent les têtes papillaires de la valvule à une distance et selon un angle prédéterminés par rapport à la plaque de l'anneau permettant ainsi un positionnement chirurgical optimum. Les têtes papillaires sont temporairement suturées à leur support et peuvent être libérées par simple coup de scalpel.
